Timeless Wisdom with Dennis Prager

If you think the Left is busy erasing US history, it’s just as bad or maybe even worse in Canada… A nation without a history is lost… Michigan is as far gone as Oregon or California.  “The only happy people I know are the people I don’t know well.” That is a famous line from the mother of Dennis’s dear friend, Rabbi Joseph Telushkin. It has shaped Dennis’s view of happiness. Callers react.  Issues raised include: my daughter has not talked to me and needs your advice; the reason people get married late is because they can't get over the past; would you consider doing a Prager U video on the 7 Noahide Laws; why can't God just get rid of cancer across the board; I want to date but my religion says I need to be alone.Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

A Daily Beast reporter was at the Moms for Liberty Convention in Philadelphia. She saw it as a hate fest. She focuses some of her ire on Dennis. He responds… Why does the left condemn book banning at school libraries? Does anyone believe that some books shouldn’t be kept from kids?  Bud Light sales have not returned to their pre-Dylan Mulvaney levels. Not even close… Jordan Peterson makes the astonishing claim that a man can’t be a woman or visa versa. Predictably, the left on social media goes berserk… Don’t let the left make you lie.  In 1926, Calvin Coolidge gave a speech commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. It’s one of the best addresses any president has ever given: philosophically deep and crystal clear… Curious why there are so many delays at the airport? Look no further than how badly the Administration has bungled the management of air traffic controllers. We’d be far better off if we put air traffic control into private hands.  Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Dennis has little patience with those who don’t understand the greatness of America. America’s failings were common to all countries. America’s successes were unique… Dennis researched the professors who protested his speech at Arizona State Univ. What he found will surprise even those who think college has become an insane asylum for leftists.  Dennis returns to a question he asked two weeks ago. What are the consequences to friends and family of someone going trans? This is one question that no one seems to ask.  Dennis was in the City of Brotherly Love this weekend. He spoke at the Moms for Liberty Convention. He also spoke to some protestors… A transgender and BLM supporter murders five people in Philadelphia.

Mark Isler guest hosts for Dennis… Mark invokes the wisdom of the late great political commentator and theorist Bruce Herschensohn. If we don’t stand up for our principles, we will likely follow the latest trend or, like, our current president, do or say whatever we think benefits us the most. That’s a hollow way to live. Immigrants are the ones most likely to understand the hope America still offers to the world. It pains them to see native-born Americans take that hope for granted... The Democrats are the true “elites.” They have disdain for ordinary Americans. The left wants to control how we live, what we think, and what we say. Mark discourses on the meaning of Lincoln’s Gettysburg address. Lincoln’s words ring as true today as they did almost 160 years ago. The Left, sadly, repudiates most, if not all, of them.  Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Do you know how many Jews there are there in the world?  Dennis recalls his first trip to Kentucky. State populations versus representation… Dennis and Julie share adoration for the founding fathers… did divine intervention play a role?  Julie was overwhelmed by pride propaganda everywhere in NYC and wonders how we went from gratitude to contempt in this country after seeing the Statue of Liberty.  The only systemic racism in this country is coming from the Left.  A speaker at the Beyond Growth conference states that white supremacy, colonialism, and imperialism underlie everything.  Where is all this wokeness headed?  Who is it worse for… those that saw America at its greatest and saw it fall … or for those who never saw it as great?  Saying “yes, dear…” is placating your wife.  Leftist men aren’t masculine.  What does the Leftist love… love requires respect and gratitude, and there is none of that on the Left.  People who walk around thinking they are victims will inevitability be mean and unhappy.  Kids don’t listen to parents regarding potential mates.  Do you like your in-laws?

Mark Davis guest hosts for Dennis… Mark celebrates the victories conservatives have achieved through the Supreme Court. In just the last year, the reversal of Roe and Affirmative Action are major victories, almost unthinkable five years ago. Thank you, President Trump… What did the Supreme Court do in the last week? It followed the Constitution. Imagine that. Mark continues to review an important week of Court decisions. And, yes, the left goes berserk in response. The left is just beside itself with this week’s Supreme Court decisions, most of which leaned right. For the left the sky is always falling. If it’s not, who would pay attention to them?... With all our national troubles, there is much to be celebrate this Independence Day. The affirmative action, free speech, and school loan decisions are three good examples.  Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

The Supreme Court finally declares affirmative action, one of the most counter-productive policies of the last half-century, to be unconstitutional.  The Left immediately moves to “the sky is falling” mode… Affirmative Action has caused much more harm than good. The Supreme Court has wisely ended it. Merit should be the only standard... The vote was 6-3, the three leftists on the court dissenting… How long before colleges dream up a new ways to get around this decision?...Dennis talks to Joseph Fornieri, professor of political science at the Rochester Institute of Technology. He presents their new PragerU video and the latest installment in our Presidents series. “Franklin Pierce: A Torn President in a Torn Country. Dennis talks to Robert Lighthizer, a member of President Trump’s cabinet as the United States Trade Representative.

Julie Hartman guest hosts for Dennis… Julie talks to Matthew Schmidt, foreign policy specialist with an emphasis on Russia… They discuss the aborted coup attempted last weekend and what it means for Putin and Russia.  Everywhere we go, we are confronted with the political. There is no escape because the Left is all political, all the time… Are Republicans really banning books? Or is this another leftist lie?  Julie analyzes a book that deeply influenced Dennis: Viktor Frankl’s classic text “Man’s Search for Meaning.” Frankl lived through the Holocaust and this experience shaped his life.  Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

Are things better or worse today than they were, say, 10, 15, 20, 50, or even 100 years ago? It’s not an easy question to answer. It really depends on the specific time and the specific subject… A small group of Neo-Nazis make some noise in front of a synagogue in Georgia. It’s much ado about nothing. These Neo-Nazis are true losers. They have zero influence.  Dennis doesn’t let compliments go to his head or insults to his heart. An emailer from Portugal explains how much Dennis has meant to his life… The only thing that bothers Dennis is when people lie about him... In addition to encouraging abortion, Planned Parenthood is involved in the sexualization of children.  How can there be a good God and so much evil and suffering in the world? This has been an issue religious Jews and Christians have wrestled with for centuries.  Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.
